I lost my original Timing Belt Tensioner Pulley Bolt, and was wondering if it requires a Lock Washer and or an additional Washer as well. I have adjusted my timing belt tension and its spot on perfect, but I replaced the OEM bolt with one from Ace, just without a lock washer or washer and now I am wondering if I should put a Lock Washer on just for added security.

Below is a picture I found and it looks like there is a washer, but I want to be 100% sure before I put my Timing Belt Cover back on and drop the engine in today. Thanks guys!

Dumb qustion! in order for you to remove your balance shaft belt you have to remove your crank sprocket?
